My 2013 IS350c is in need of new shock absorbers at all 4 corners. Car has over 100k miles on it and the shocks have never been touched.
A local, reputable shop that specializes in foreign cars recommends KYB. I don't want to second guess their knowledge and experience, but I have to wonder: is KYB reliable? Reliability/durability is my main priority. I would rather pay a bit more up front to get significantly more service life/miles, within reason, of course. If I have to pay 3x more but only for a small improvement, then I'd lean toward aftermarket, too.
